Summary:
On Ubuntu (and maybe other distros), the executable for the chromium browser is 'chromium-browser' instead of 'chromium'.
This commit calls 'chromium-browser' before calling 'chromium' if it exists.
Start an example app on Android with "react-native init project && react-native run-android". Open DevTools: it opens chromium correctly.

_What existing problem does the pull request solve?_
On Linux, the packager caught an "Google Chrome exited with error: { Error: spawn google-chrome ENOENT}" when trying to launch the devTools because google-chrome is not installed but chromium is.
Thus, this pull request maps the platform Linux with chromium for launching the debugger automatically in the packager
_A good test plan has the exact commands you ran and their output, provides screenshots or videos if the pull request changes UI or updates the website._
- enter on terminal
> react-native start
- launch the app in dev mode with "Debug JS remotely" enabled
- the packager prints "Launching Dev Tools..." and launch chromium with the debugger
